Bicycle Portraits

Written By: MIM!—The Bicycle Portraits project was initiated by Stan Engelbrecht (Cape Town, South Africa) and Nic Grobler (Johannesburg, South Africa) early in 2010. They’re finding out who rides bicycles, why they ride bicycles, if and why they love their bicycles, and of course why so few South Africans choose bicycles as a transport option with the goal of publishing a photography book of portraits about South African bicycle commuter culture and people who use bicycles in their day-to-day existence. To learn more about the project, take a look at the video below.
